Only by ignoring the fact that to get new phenotypes requires losing the genetic underpinnings of other phenotypes, for a net loss of genetic diversity as selection continues to create new species. If evolution requires losing genetic diversity eventually evolution has to come to a stop.

Can you please point to any post where I used any such extrapolation? You seem to be making stuff up.

After weighing up the evidence you have come to the conclusion that universal common descent is a fact. But I disagree - it's not a fact, but an absurd extrapolation.

When you feel the need to attack the messenger because you don't like the message, it is a good sign that you can't refute the message.

I think my hypotheis is worth serious consideration: "This extrapolation was inspired by an hallucination induced by an overdose of peyote that Charles Darwin experienced while in South America. He then used the hallucination as the basis for his first science-fiction novel." It explains everything.

You really like to throw that word around, "atheistic". I have to wonder whether you even have any clue what it means and especially whether you are able to tell whether something is actually atheistic or not.

So then, yet again, explain why you consider that idea to be "atheistic."

Well, ToE is actually an invention of Satan; but it is transmitted to the world at large by atheists. Out of the Enlightenment came a tsunami of atheism. It's was only a matter of time before a pseudo-scientific creation story came along to make all these atheists feel "intellectually fulfilled". It's so obvious. Why can't you see it?

Why do you consider it atheistic? Be very specific in giving your reasons.

What is obvious is how far your head is wedged in and how deeply deluded you are.

Of course, if you truly think that you are not deluded, then you can explain your reasoning in having made your determinations. If you cannot, then you have never actually thought it through and you are deluded.

That's not a very nice thing to say. The cult you have willingly joined doesn't like dissenters who shine lights in their dark dungeons. You are childishly deluded if you think the purpose of ToE is to advance science.
